Archaeological day at Teotihuacan - The tour was a great experience and we had a delightful time! Our tour guide for the trip was Emanuel who spoke in English for our tour but also spoke Spanish. We found Emanuel extremely knowledgeable and very well engaged with the whole group throughout the entire tour. He displayed great humor and passion throughout the day and his way of explanation was very emotive and captivating. Emanuel was also extremely knowledgeable and provided an initiate understanding of Teotihuacan but also of the overall context of Meso American history and archaeology.
Some downsides of the tour was that it was advertised as three hours of the whole site with some detail on not commonly explored areas. Two hours was spent at the southern/ central area which contained the Templo de Quetzalcóatl and the Plaza Oeste among other things. But once we came to the Pyramid of the Sun we were giving 50 mins to explore on our own. We did not have Emanuel as a guide for either the Pyramid of the Sun or the Moon which we were expecting and would have provided some good additional background especially as he was so knowledgeable. As such at the end of the tour we felt rushed to look at the two large pyramids before heading back to the bus.
Overall, we would highly recommend Emanuel as a guide to our friends and anyone else wanting to undertake a tour to the archaeological site that bypasses all the tourists traps.

Educational trip to the ruins - A great trip without all the stops you don’t want. We had Fabio as a guide and he was great. Really informative but also very honest about what is still to learn.

Book with these guys! - Can’t recommend this tour enough. Edwin was amazing. So much knowledge about the history of the pyramids and all about surrounding communities.
The pick up was smooth, the guides were caring and always make sure everyone was comfortable before continuing.
I wouldn’t go here without booking with these guys! Thank you Edwin for your time and knowledge!

Group tour Mexico City to Teotihucan - Jaime was our tour guide. Smaller group, about 12 people. Easy walking pace. Jaime shared several interesting facts about the archeology and history of Teotihucan.
Definitely recommend choosing Paseos Olmedo Tours.

A well-rounded experience of the ancient city of Teotihuacan - We enjoyed the half day tour to visit the ancient city of Teotihuacan. It was the perfect balance of guided history and free time to walk around the Moon and Sun pyramids. Emmanuel was our group guide and we really enjoyed his style of knowledge-sharing and enthusiasm. We definitely recommend the morning tour as by the afternoon it was very busy! Bring snacks and water. Would recommend!

Great experience! - Great experience! The guide was really knowledgeable and funny. The group was a bit big, and the communication ahead of the tour a bit unclear regarding pick up time. Otherwise great tour. The pyramids along with the historical and architectural context provided - very interesting!

Amazing pyramids not amazing tour guide - Amazing pyramids! An absolute highlight! You see all the pyramids that are there however the actual guide we had was not good and kept repeating himself and taking so long to explain. 1/2 of the group didn’t even bother listening and did their own thing.
I was not given any information and thank God I contacted the phone number by email. If you don’t get anything the day before definitely send them a message via WhatsApp the morning of.

Better communication would have made a big difference. - Unfortunately I was unable to attend the tour due to illness. i gave the tour operator a bad review because I was told they could let me join on another date. When i reached out to reschedule, I never heard back from them, which was pretty disappointing.
